Synonymous with quality craftsmanship, style and perhaps even flamboyance – Colnago presents its namesake with a gold plated masterpiece.
In terms of gifts, Colnago somewhat broke the bank, presenting Ernesto with a one-of-a-kind, gold plated Colnago 87 – worth an incredible €50,000 Euros. The 24 carat gold Arabesque frame is not dissimilar to the one presented to Pope John Paul II in 1979. Its no expense spared build features a complete heritage Campagnolo Super Record groupset.
Rouleur was in attendance to celebrate the occasion and especially to honour Colnago’s induction into the Cycling Hall of Fame.
